i understand that you

- load a JSON array file
- and store it to a table

WHY

- now you want overwrite values in the table?

what is the problem?

and what has that to do with JSON, unless you want to say that you need to save it back to JSON file instead to csv table file??

\_ - \_ - \_ - \_ - \_ - \_ - \_  
you see your question is not easy to understand,

- so you need to write more details,
- link to your code ( or better MCVE ) at [https://editor.p5js.org/](https://editor.p5js.org/)

so we can read and test better to give a better answer.
